Cheerymishmash: Five petalled flower pattern. I wanted to make some flowers to decorate my hanging rail with when I do markets.

cheerymishmash: Five petalled flower pattern

In my head I know exactly what I want them to look like, but I couldn't find a pattern anywhere that I liked, so I had a go at making one up. They're not exactly what I want, but they're pretty close. There probably are lots of patterns for similar flowers out there already, but I thought it would be good practice to have a go at writing a pattern out, so please do have a go and give me your feedback on how clear (or not!) My instructions are :-) (and please excuse the not very well focussed photos!) UK terms and I used a 4.5mm hook with dk yarn which makes a flower approx. 7cm diameter. Please use the pattern for your own use only and not for items you intend to sell. Round 1 : Yarn1 - chain three (a) and then work nine htr's into the third loop from the hook (loop next to knot)(b)(c) to end up with a circle of ten stitches (d) break off yarn 1.

Crochet doodle flowers free pattern. It's interesting the way new patterns take form. For amigurumis, I usually start with an idea, that becomes a sketch, that becomes an amigurumi. But sometimes I just doodle with some yarn and a hook, and interesting things can happen. Yesterday I was doodling with some Catania yarn and a 2.5 mm crochet hook, and I decided to have a go at designing a little flower.

I wanted something quick and easy, and after just one unravelling I got it! You can use any yarn and matching hook for this project, but I prefer to use a small hook and fine yarn. Here's the pattern: You need a very small amount of yarn, and a crochet hook that's suitable for the weight of the yarn. Make a magic ring, leaving a long tail of yarn. Rnd 1 - Make 11 sc into the magic ring, pulling it closed enough for the scs to join, but not too tight that it would deform the circular centre of your flower.

Rnd 2 - Turn, and make 4 ch. Wasn't that easy? Convert this page to a PDF. Springtime Coasters Part One. Over 100 Free Crocheted Flowers Patterns at AllCrafts! The best FREE patterns so WONDERFUL people like YOU can create and SHARE!
